ha, Johnson must be great if he can't even tackle Morne Steyn

How was that not an England penalty? Ashton passed the ball then 5 second later BdP shoulder charged him in the neck.

I saw that....


Was hilarious (but deffo a penalty)

 

[Mrs. Peter Quinn]

Boks really turning the screw. Have to say though, that was incredibly arrogant of them to quick tap that, as it was at the end of the first half when they indicated to go to the corner.

 

[TRF_Olyy]

Flood on for BB.
Hopefully he actually does go to 12, as Farrell is pants there!

 

[Tony Manx]

Well done Walsh.....Rolland would have given them reds!!!

 

[SelimNiai]

Judging by JdV's cut by the eye someone might have thrown one or 2

 

[TRF_Olyy]

Nothing in it between Steyn and Farrell, but should've been a penalty to England for the Springbok number 4 running in and suckerpunching Farrell (well, ***** slapping him anyway)

 

[callsign.springbok]

Jean de villiers!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

 

[Mrs. Peter Quinn]

We really need territory. Need to get out of these positions as our defence is about to give

EDIT: Just as I speak..

 

[SelimNiai]

Good try there to pretty much finish it. Brown's attempt at the tackle was pitiful

 

[TRF_Olyy]

18mins to get 11 pts.....


and as I say that good work by England and a penalty to come.

 

[Teh Mite]

Should shut the Brown fan club up.

 

[Tony Manx]

Game over and this could turn distinctly mucky!

Serious selection posers for next week.....you have to look at replacements/changes in connection with Botha, Youngs, Farrell, Tuilagi and Brown to start with!

 

[Mrs. Peter Quinn]

Teh Mite Brown has played pretty well tbf, but yep, he should have made a hit there, or at least a tackle

 

[Teh Mite]

By "pretty well", you mean he's not had anything remarkable to do and achieved 80% of the basics.

True, but games go by in which Foden doesnt need to do anything apart from those basics.

 

[Wilko's left boot]

Jeez Teh Mite, you'd do anything to get on Brown's case.

 

[Mrs. Peter Quinn]

We've played well, but what ****** me off now is just when we need big guys to be bringing on just like SA are doing, we've picked guys like Mears...

Dickson and Joseph on now please.
